Keeping All Kids Safe
Drop-off & Pick-up at Chester Valley Elementary
Third Quarter Safety Reminders
Help us keep all kids safe before and after school by:
- always using our parking lot drop-off/pickup lane at the curb
- having kids exit and enter through your passenger side car door
- escorting your children to the curb if you choose to park and walk
- slowing to 5 mph in our lot
- parking well away from both sides of the crosswalk on Patterson Street
- honoring our bus lane hours -- no private cars between 8 am and 4 pm
Park well-away from our crosswalk on Patterson Street
We ask parents to use our parking lot drop off/pick up curb, as snow and traffic make visibility on Patterson difficult at times. Should you park on the street, stay well-away from our crosswalk area so students can be seen and do not stop in front of the bus exit. Do not park across Patterson and ask kids to cross and enter your car. This is dangerous!
Use our curbside drop-off / pickup loop
Kids exiting and entering vehicles through the passenger-side door will never have to cross in front of traffic! Students crossing to the parking area must be accompanied by a parent or guardian.
No private vehicles in the bus lane between 8 - 4 p.m.
The bus lane is directly in front of our main entrance and the 2/3 doorway. This area is for bus and multi-passenger van traffic only (Carousel and Boys and Girls' Club) during the school day. Handicapped parking is located in this area.
